Aero Research is back with a new series in their growing
line-up of great offerings. This new photo CD features a random
sampling of USAF aircraft photos that were taken anywhere between
the mid 1960s to present. None of these photos are from the
government photo archives, these are all compiled from the
same excellent range of professional (or very skilled) aviation
photographers. Most importantly, all of these photos are of
aircraft still in service, no derelicts, boneyard storage,
or museum pieces. Many of them were photographed in various
theaters around the world.
This first installment in the series is USAF Collection #1,
which means that you'll get an interesting variety of operational
aircraft from USAF service. The subjects included in this collection
include:
- A-1 Skyraider
- A-10 Thunderbolt II
- A-26/B-26 Invader
- A-37 Dragonfly
- B-47 Stratojet

For the tail spotter, you'll see these aircraft from a variety
of time periods to that you'll get representative configurations
of the airframe during different phases of its operational
life. You'll also be able to see the aircraft in a variety
of color schemes. For the
modeler, you'll see lots of good details and color information
for tackling that next project.
This is a nice selection of imagery that you won't find available
in such clarity and size. This title is recommended!
